The 1922 25" map reveals the two mileage sidings on the site of the former tramway wharf has been installed, branching off the siding into the north end dock, along with a weighing machine (131, 133). The peculiar siding just north of the station and trailing on the Up side is now connected to the creamery siding (to the right of 133) while the creamery buildings have been extended. The Railway Hotel (P.H.) stands at the end of New Street, now New Road. It ceased trading in 1967 but the building still exists and in 2024 the painted "Railway Hotel" name could still be discerned on the building's east wall. The railway cottages were also on New street and are still in existence, now holiday lets.
